For example, the chord C 6 contains the notes C–E–G–A. The minor sixth chord (min 6 or m 6, e.g., Cm 6) is a minor triad, still with a major 6. For example, the chord Cm 6 contains the notes C–E ♭ –G–A. The augmented sixth chord usually appears in chord notation as its enharmonic equivalent, the seventh chord.

For example: D/F ♯ is a D chord with F ♯ in the bass, and; A/C ♯ is an A chord with C ♯ in the bass. Slash chords generally do not indicate a simple inversion (which is usually left to the chord player's discretion anyway), especially considering that the specified bass note may not be part of the chord to play on top.

In music theory, a major chord is a chord that has a root, a major third, and a perfect fifth. When a chord comprises only these three notes, it is called a major triad . For example, the major triad built on C, called a C major triad, has pitches C–E–G:
The term "chord chart" can also describe a plain ASCII text, digital representation of a lyric sheet where chord symbols are placed above the syllables of the lyrics where the performer should change chords. [6] Continuing with the Amazing Grace example, a "chords over lyrics" version of the chord chart could be represented as follows:
This harmonic, common to the three notes, is situated 2 octaves above the high note of the chord. This is the sixth harmonic of the root of the chord, the fifth of the middle note, and the fourth of the high note: In the example C, E ♭, G, the common harmonic is a G 2 octaves above. Demonstration: Minor third = 6:5 = 12:10; Major third = 5:4 ...
Equal chords are subtended by equal angles from the center of the circle. A chord that passes through the center of a circle is called a diameter and is the longest chord of that specific circle. If the line extensions (secant lines) of chords AB and CD intersect at a point P, then their lengths satisfy AP·PB = CP·PD (power of a point theorem).
